On November 13, 2023, Miami-Dade Countys transit agency, Miami-Dade Transit, implemented significant changes to its bus network - designated the Better Bus Network.


Hallo Open StreetMap ist wirklich ein sehr cooles Projekt, Respekt und Dank an alle Menschen die das durch ihre hervorragenden Leistungen möglich machen. ich habe jetzt länger gesucht ob man die Weltkarte nicht auf Englisch umstellen kann , ich bin leider bei längerer Suche nicht darauf gestossen , wo ist denn der Umschaltknopf auf englische Sprache , ich kann leider nicht Russisch Arabisch oder Chinesisch usw lesen… des weiteren benutze ich viele Linux Software mit OSM Karten leider nicht mehr auf Englisch das ganze …kann mir jemand weiterhelfen?




Working mainly in Africa its not rare to come across to crowdsourced powered mapped areas.
I still repair, from time to time, the disaster done in 2022 in Mogadishu



I really wanted to participate in the State of the Map 2024 in Kenya to broaden my horizons, understand what is happening under other skies and exchange with members of other communities to draw from their experience: How they are organized and how t…


I am happy to receive the HOT Open Summit scholarship to attend the State of the Map 2024 held in Kenya. I can give a lecture on-site. But unfortunately, I got influenza and felt very ill during my trip to Kenya.

Individual trees are not “natural woods.” Someone has marked all the trees around my house as individual woods, but they are actually trees I planted, not many separate woodlands.



Seit kurzem dabei….


Uli, 61 Jahre aus Gladbeck. Seit Juni 2024 bin ich Mapper und versuche mich in OSM einzuarbeiten indem ich meinen Heimatstadtteil Buttendorf mal genauer betrachte und Fehler berichtige.

Ich freue mich über Kontakte in Gladbeck und natürlich über Hinweise wenn ich mal was falsch editiere.

Bis bald

Uli


Come closer and lets have a jiffy conversation
Hear me out. You can only take advantage of so many things when youre a student, especially when it comes to personal and professional development.
I present to you YouthMappers!


Giving back to the community has been the focus. On 26_07_24, I had the opportunity to meet the UMaT YouthMappers chapter while attending the 5th WAIMM Students Conference (an annual 3-day conference).


On March 15th and 16th, OpenStreetMap Ghana (Sir Mawutor) and I visited UCC YouthMappers to familiarize them with how to fly a drone to map and to also map with Mapillary. It turned out to be an excellent result—a massive turnout. Appreciation to Dr.


I am grateful to YouthMappers for providing me with the knowledge and abilities that would enable me to impact and transform deprived communities and contribute to sustainable development.


Once upon a time a bunch of people decided to start collecting informative bits about stuff they‘re concerned with into a geo-referenced database. They mapped streets – hence the name of their experiment – and also PoIs. Records consist of a so-called tags, key-value pairs. In hindsight tags are differentiated into a primary tag, a.k.a. the substance/essence and a number of secondary tags, a.k.a. the attributes. There‘d be e.g. highway=secondary; name=Abbey Road.

One of those days, somebody noticed a problem: They wanted to map a so-called shared-space, where pedal cycles and pedestrians both allowed and traffic sings put up to show that intention. One solution might have been to tag a highway=cycleway;footway. Thereby turning the right hand side of the tag into a list. This looked ugly, a tag no longer would code for a 1:1 relation but a 1:n relation. Users of the data do not like that.

Some pondering later, the idea was born: Put the function/use/arbitrary detail of the mapped entity into the attributes where they can merrily coexist. foot=designated; bicycle=designated should from now on convey what previously was told by the primary tag. Only problem left: What would be the substance then? It must be something generic, something that provides as little information as possible over what the highway key already contains.

This marked the inception of highway=path as a light and unspecific shim over highway. All it says: It is probably narrow (But don‘t depend on that.) You likely will not see cars moving there. (With few exceptions.)

So they married, and everyone lived happily ever after.



Erstmal ein herzliches Dankeschön an alle, die OpenStreetMap möglich machen. In Kombination mit StreetComplete kann ich Menschen motivieren, ihre Anliegen zu verfolgen. In meinem Blog hier möchte ich auf Dauer Beispiele einstellen und mit anderen Aktiven vernetzen.

A project I worked on, the Toronto Public Washroom Import recently finished up and I thought it would be interesting to do a quick lessons learned:



On Saturday, September 14, 2024, Pakistan hosted its first-ever mapathon, a collaborative event aimed at contributing to the OpenStreetMap (OSM) community.




I spent 11 nights backpacking in Glacier National Park this summer (on two separate trips), and noticed that existing mapping of the campsites is minimal.



W ramach projektu edukacyjnego #ariss ( Amateur Radio on the International Space Station ) członkowie/członkinie Młodzieżowego Obserwatorium Astronomicznego w Niepołomicach przeprowadzili wczoraj sesję łączności radiowej z Międzynarodową Stacją Kosmiczną #iss.

It is definitely good knowing how to use field tools to map on specific projects.

There comes experience 😊 regardless of previous teaching on how to use these tools like ODK, Vespucci, Mapsme and others; in the field you definitely have to use your own discretion to relate and adjust to what is given to maintain your nobility at work.


I became interested in the issue of localizing the map of Ukraine into English and decided to raise it in several forum discussions (first, second, third) to delve into the nuances and find optimal approaches to filling out the tag for objects in Uk…


Last week we released Rapid v2.4, the most advanced web-based editor for OpenStreetMap. This release wraps up several months of work, includes numerous bugfixes, and a few notable features:

Didn’t do anything today sadly apart from a few streetcomplete stars

Well, let me share my experiences at “State of the Map 2024” in Nairobi at the University of Nairobi which I must say was like the coolest place ever for a bunch of map nerds like us to meet.


Since the beginning of June, I have been working on researching and locating the holy wells of County Kilkenny. I have more or less identified about 213 of them which are described in sources going back at least 90 years (Schools Collection etc).


The State of the Map (SotM) 2024 in Nairobi started with the most exciting YouthMappers pre-event at American Spaces. It was clear that the conference was going to be full of inspiration and action.
